Nest Learning Thermostat

The Nest Learning Thermostat is a WiFi-connected thermostat with an LCD display, developed mostly by ex-Apple people and using parts from the "smart-phone dividend".

I wrote the initial version of the server software, that mediated remote control (via separately-developed Web, iPhone, and Android apps), collected logs, and delivered OTA updates; then managed the internet services team that replaced this; then managed technical operations that kept this working in the cloud.
